Move Motion to Transform

This tool transfers, with one click, all the animation of the Motion to a Transform effect on the same clip. In the image nothing changes: the framing and the movement stay the same. The difference is in Effect Controls: the Motion is left without animation and the Transform starts carrying the keyframes, which lets you combine the animation with other effects and save it as a bullet that works on top of the framing of any clip.

How to use it

  1. Select the clip that has the animation on Motion.
  2. Click on the fixed bar.
  3. Sniper asks Move Motion to Transform?. Click Move.

A good moment to use it is right before saving an effect bullet: an animation that lives on a Transform can be fired on any clip without touching the position and the scale that the clip already has.
